Grief Walks

FEE: $40-90/45 minute walk, based on financial need

In partnership with Sparrow, Dwellness will be offering Grief Walks to individuals, families or couples, throughout the arboretum of Green-wood cemetery, Riverside Park, or Trinity Cemetery and Mausoleum. Grief walks will offer the opportunity to engage in several healing factors:

  • The ability to share your grief without fear of burdening others, thereby reducing loneliness and withdrawal

  • The grounding and healing impact of connecting with and witnessing nature.

  • The psychological benefits of physical activity, during a time when it can be very hard to move

  • The exposure to death as a part of life, through walking amongst those who have passed

FEE: $40-90 per 45 minute walk (based on financial need). These Grief Walks will be facilitated by Dwellness’ Advanced Clinical Trainees.
